*Jude 9: "When Michael the Archangel, disputing with the devil, contended about the body of Moses", etc. St. Jude alludes to an ancient Jewish tradition of a dispute between Michael and Satan over the body of Moses, which is also found in the apocryphal book on the assumption of Moses (Origen, ''De Principiis'' III.2.2). St. Michael concealed the tomb of Moses; Satan, however, by disclosing it, tried to seduce the Jewish people to the sin of hero-worship. St. Michael also guards the body of Eve, according to the "Revelation of Moses"<ref>"Apocryphal Gospels", etc., ed. A. Walker, Edinburgh, p. 647.</ref>

*Revelation 12:7, "And there was a great battle in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon." St. John speaks of the great conflict, which reflects also the battle in heaven at the beginning of time. When the apostles rejoice that, when they went forth to preach, and to heal, the spirits are subject to them, Jesus said, "I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven" (Luke 10:18). According to the Fathers there is often question of St. Michael in Scripture where his name is not mentioned. They say he was the cherub who stood at the gate of paradise, "to keep the way of the tree of life" (Genesis 3:24), the angel through whom God published the Decalogue to his chosen people, the angel who stood in the way against Balaam (Numbers 22:22 ), the angel who routed the army of Sennacherib (2 Kings 19:35).
